TTZ Calipers

hey guys,

I was wondering if i had 18x8 37mm offset wheel, would i need spacers to clear 30mm TTZ calipers or should i go 26mm?

It all depends on your spoke pattern. I would get the 37mm..... you might have to get 5mm spacers.

Offset is not the only factor. Design of the wheel is as or more important.

As a general guess, most volks provide good clearance. How much clearance to have now? From the end of the caliper to the inside of the spokes

Well with Matt's kit and the 300zx calipers measure from the center of the board 5.25" out to a spoke. From that point you should have atleast 2.5" to the rotor if you're going to get 300zx calipers.

there is a high and low disk setup for volks. Check which ones you have. High disk = thick hub, designed for clearing brakes

hey jeff,

it seems as if you are the one that makes the brackets for the 300zx calipers with the cobra rotors. How much for the bracket and all the hardware necessary to install this brake kit.

I only provide the brackets. Which are $45 shipped. But since you have a 2000+ maxima, you will have to even modify these brackets. ie.. drill one set of holes out to a bigger size. Don't know if you want to do that. If not, it might be easier to buy Matt93se's bbk kit. It uses a slightly smaller rotor 12.5" but it's ready to bolt on
